Ingredients
- 1 Pie Crust
- 5 Peaches Peeled and cored
- 1/4 cup Flour All Purpose
- 1 tbsp Sugar Granulated
- 1/4 tsp Cardamom
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Make a pie crust - See recipe here.
- Peel, core, and slice peaches into thin strips and place them into a large bowl.
- Add in the flour, sugar, cardamom, and vanilla then mix well to combine. Set aside.
- Roll out the pie crust on a floured surface until about 15 inches in diameter. Put the rolled dough onto a parchment lined pizza pan and gently poke holes with a fork. Brush with an egg white wash.
- Pour the filling onto the center of the dough and spread it out leaving 2 inches of exposed crust on all sides.
- Going in a clockwise direction, fold and tuck sections of the dough up and over the filling. You don't need to be precise - this is a rustic dessert.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and lower the oven rack to the lower third position. Bake for 30-35 minutes -checking often at the end. Remove from the oven when the crust is crispy and golden brown.
- Cool to room temperature and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
-The filling can be made a day ahead and kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
-If using a crust from the freezer, let thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
- Add a handful of raspberries to the peach mixture for an extra treat!
